Gelato Base

Method

Gelato Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Gelato Base

    In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is heated through but not boiling.

  2. 2

    Whisk Egg Yolks

    In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are pale and slightly thickened.

  3. 3

    Temper the Egg Yolks

    Slowly pour a small amount of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks while whisking continuously to temper them. Gradually add the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan.

  4. 4

    Cook the Mixture

    Continue to cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not boil.

  5. 5

    Cool the Base

    Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla extract, and let the mixture cool. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
